Privacy

The website and newsletter are run by the FABRICATE organisers. This page explains what personal data the website collects and what we do with it. In short: the site sets no cookies, and the only personal data we keep is the email address of newsletter subscribers.

If you subscribe, your email address is stored in Mailchimp, which sends our newsletter. We use it only to send news about FABRICATE and don’t share it with anyone else. We keep it until you unsubscribe, with the link in every email or by writing to us. Mailchimp tells us whether a newsletter was opened and which links were clicked.

Mailchimp is run by Intuit in the US, which is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and its UK Extension; that covers the transfer of your address there. Legal basis: your consent.

Visitor statistics

We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to count visits and see which pages are read. It uses no cookies, doesn’t store your IP address and doesn’t follow you across other sites. We see totals only.

Hosting

The site is served by Cloudflare. Like any web host, it processes your IP address to deliver pages and protect the site from attacks. Legal basis: our legitimate interest in running a secure website.

Cookies

The site sets none.

Other sites

Links to YouTube, social media, UCL Press and EasyChair (where Call for Work submissions are made) take you to services with their own privacy policies.

Your rights

You can ask for a copy of your data, have it corrected or deleted, or withdraw your consent at any time. For this, or any question about your data, email partners@fabricate.org. If you’re unhappy with how we handle it, you can complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ico.org.uk) or the data protection authority where you live.
